Trustees hold off on faculty center

By Adam Sichlto
mt airmen KERKEL
A $4.38 million plan to ren-

ovate the Hilary J. Boone Cen-
ter has been postponed for at
least a month but not reject-
ed _ after a UK Board of
Trustees meeting yesterday

By a unanimous vote.
trustees tabled the issue and
postponed any decision-mak-
ing until President Lee Todd
satisfactorily answers their
questions.

“His (Todd’s) plan wasn‘t

firmed up enough to make a
decision." said newly-elected
board chairman Jim Hardy—
mon. "It raised some ques-
tions. certainly"

The finance committee met
a few hours before the meeting
to discuss that proposal and 20
other action items on the meet-
ing agenda.

"Like anything else. we
need to get comfortable with
the justification for the expert-
ditures before we approve it."
said Hardymon. who also

serves as chairman of the fi-
nance committee.

"When we saw the presen-
tation on the new dorms (at a
previous meeting). it was very
thorough. But he (Todd) just
didn‘t have that today"

Todd , who said he agreed
with the decision hopes to
have everyone on board by late
October, when he plans to pre-
sent the issue to the trustees
again.

“I want to make sure every-
one gets their questions an-

swered." he said. “I definitely
do not want anyone to have
second thoughts about this. but
we've got to make this invest-
ment to bring in money for
scholarships.

“We need to keep people on
campus for those fundraising
events. and the Boone Center
can serve as a Showplace for
UK." he said.

Todd said he’s willing to
take the extra time to have
meetings with groups such as
the faculty senate in order to

make his mission clear.

Trustee Roy Moore has
helped arrange at least one
meeting between Todd and
members of the faculty senate.
but Moore added he didn‘t nee
essarily feel uninformed about
the plans.

“There needs to be that
communication." Moore said.
“Lots of folks need to know
what types of renovations are
planned and exactly how we

volved with the redecorating
and renovation plans is First
Lady Patsy Todd. who declined
to comment on the board‘s de
cision to table those plans.

“Obviously it’s a sensation-
al issue. but I feel that the pres
ident needs to publicly address
that." she said.

President Todd said his
wife is very adept at interior
designing.

“I know things that need to
be done in there (the Boone

intend to fund this project."

Former footballcoach
files lawsuit against UK

By Jeff Patterson

THE rrnru'cxi «rein

A former UK football coach has filed a lawsuit in US.
District Court suing the UK Athletics Association. the
Southeastern Conference and the National Collegiate Ath-
letic Association for $50 million.

Claude Bassett. a former UK recruiting coordinator.
claims he was denied due process in the investigation of re-
cruiting violations that led to UK's current probation.

According to the lawsuit. filed Friday in Covington. the
“accusations and ban were based upon evi—
dence gathered through deceit and never
tested through due process.“ Bassett's repu-
tation will discourage any NCAA school ,. . .. .1 .
from ever hiring him. the lawsuit said. . '1'

The NCAA banned him from coaching for .
eight years on Jan. 30. 2002. - " ‘

Bassett is currently the athletic director ’(
and head football coach for Robstown High 41
School in Robstown. Texas. He could not be Bassett
reached for comment.

In addition. the lawsuit claims the orga-
nizations broke the Sherman Antitrust Act and the Clayton
Act. The compensatory and punitive damages Would triple
if the court finds an antitrust violation under these acts.
the lawsuit asks.

“Mr. Bassett‘s claims are completely without merit and
will eventually be dismissed by the courts." said NCAA
spokesman Jeff Howard. “His due process claims are equal-
ly without merit as the NCAA provided him with all proce-
dural fairness the law would require if the NCAA were a
public body instead of a private one."

Bassett admitted on Jan 3. 2001. to sending money or:
ders to a Memphis high school coach. according to the
NCAA report. But the lawsuit said Bassett never admitted
to sending $1.400 to a high school coach. and he hasn‘t been
allowed access to the taped interview.

Bassett said committing rules violations “were the rule.
not the exception. for SE(‘ schools pursuing the best play-

~ ers." according to the lawsuit.

The lawsuit said Larry Ivy. former IIK athletic director.
and Tony Franklin. former offensive coordinator. "con-
spired to ruin Coach Bassett‘s college coaching career."

In a dialogue between the two. Franklin said:

UK allows logging
of Robinson Forest

By Adam Stchlto
mt KINTUCKV KEBNEL

Last year. the UK Board of Trustees wouldn't allow Robin:
son Forest to be surface mined.

But this year. to help out the cash-straptxd Robinson Schol.
ars program and to forge new ground in forestry research. the
board unanimously approved a timber harvest management
program designed to satisfy the best of both worlds.

“We believe the intention of the El). Robinson Trust says
to do research like this provide answers that the forest com-
munity really needs." said Chris Barton. assistant professor in
the Department of Forestry

“That's the neat thing about Robinson Forest. We have the
perfect research facility to do this thing. It gives us the oppor»
tunity to do this on a legitimate scale." said Barton. who helped
author a report on the forest given to board members in their
meeting yesterday

The plan divides a lo.000~acre section of the forest almost
twothirds of the forest into four sections. all of which will
be used for ecology and hydrology research.

“Both scientific and financial needs are met here." Presi-
dent l,ee Todd said. "This is an asset many schools don't have.
so are very fortunate in that regard."

e majority of research will focus on streams and other

‘ ic studies. but the methodical elimination of trees will
ral part of that research. Barton said.

time cut. trees in about 1.000 acres of that total

systematically felled and sold partly to help gener

ey for the Robinson Scholars program. said Scott

' ' can of the College of Agriculture.

, -very small fraction would be harvested. leaving the rest
rate." Smith said. “The harvesting will have to be con-
. but it will be highly managed with detailed specifica-

tions to preserve as much of the forest as possible."

Barton said the standard will be to leave one live tree and
several dead trees in each acre of land.

“That way. we will leave those old. dead trees to stabilize the
forest and its habitats." Barton said. He said the forest would
regenerate from this onetime cut after a few years.

UK graduate students. faculty and professionals will test
and examine 10 watersheds. which are regions of forest that
drain into different bodies of water. In those watersheds. trees
will be chopped down from three alternate distances from a
stream. Researchers are hoping to see varying effects on soil
quality and water quality from different cutting distances.

also. Several precincts still
need volunteers to help run

Every student needs to
register and vote. regardless
of what party they back. said
Krista King. a sophomore

English major.

"It‘s important for stu-

party they support."

Registering and voting
should be important to every
student. said Student Govern-
ment President Rachel Watts.

"Students are experienc—
ing newfound independence
at this point in their lives.“
she said. “They‘re becoming
more informed about issues.
both locally and nationally.
'l‘hey're beginning to realize
politics directly affect their
everyday lives and that voting
is how to get involvwi."

(‘ollege students shouldn't
be intimidated by the elec-
toral process. said Tamisha
’l‘hompson. a computer sci-
ence engineering senior,

“The important thing is

'l‘hompsoii said. “Registering
is only the first step in a two
step process. Students must

First Daughter

Samantha Mackenzie (Katie Holmes)
is the daughter of the president
(Michael Keaton). After being in the
press while living in the White House.
she wants to get away and live some
semblance of a normal life in college.
The most normal thing imaginable
happens. I guess. as she falls in love
with her RA. James (Marc Blucas).
and their normal. completely expect-
ed romance follows. Keep on the
lookout for a long, long burld-up,
with Sam climbing a ladder to meet
her true love. James Van Der Beek
might've been in this mov1e, but I
hear he's searching for retirement
homes after turning 65 on the set of
Dawson '9 Creek. At Regal.

The Forgotten

Julianne Moore must really be wor-
ried about The Laws of Attraction to
star in a movie with a title that just
cries for attention. Moore is Tally
Peretta, a mother grieving over the
death of her son in a plane crash two
years prior. and dealing with es-
trangement from husband (Anthony
Edwards). Then her shrink, Dr. Munch
(Cary Sinese) tells her that her son
was just a deIuSion she had. and de-
spite her best attempts. she can't
find any evidence to the contrary.
Until, that is. she meets Ash Correll
(Dominic West), a father who lost his
daughter in the same plane crash.
Together. they seek the truth behind
the contradictions between memory
and reality.

Shaun of die Dead

After the recent rash of zombie

ter of time until the zombie ver5ion
of Scary Movre was inflicted upon us

Shaun (Simon Pegg) is an under-
achiever who IUSI got more time to
hang at the pub when his girlfriend
dumps him. But, as zombies begin to
walk to crown John Kerry their king.

MONEYMATTERS

Business sawy via online auctions

Dear Kenny.

After taking many man-
agement and finance courses
as a business junior. l hare
learned some good techniques
on how to run a business. My
goal is to one day own my
own company. but I feel I
need to gain more hands-on
experience now if I want to
be in charge later What can I
do that would help prepare
me for my future.”

Reynolds Hart
Business junior

Dear Reynolds.

It sounds like we have
similar feelings when it
comes to work. We see our
selves becoming dedicated
entrepreneurs and one day
being “the boss.“

Unfortunately. at this
age unless you have lots ot
startup capital and manage-
ment knowledge. the power
to begin your own company
is quite elusive.

However. starting up a
temporary company at this
age can teach you every-
thing you need know for any
area of life.

Most people our age try
starting lawn service com par
nies in the spring and Sillllr
mer months. snow shoveling
services in the winter and
many other hard labor ser
vices that customers need.
I‘m sure you don‘t want to
wait or do the hard labor. so
my advice is to sell products
on eBay

For those readers unfav
miliar with the term. eBay
is an online auction site.
which allows buyers and
sellers to exchange items
electronically.

Basically. eBay acts as

These are just a part of
what you can learn by using
eBay for a business venture
Some of these lessons. such
as competition and expens»
es. may add some stress and
unwanted risks. but in the
long run. the effort is well

worth it. The harder you try
to sell stuff. the better the
outcome. always.

The idea of using eBay
as a personal business
brings a whole new meaning
to work. especially for col»
lege students. Most students
don't want to wake up every
Sunday morning hung over
and stumble into work. With
eBay. every day you make
decisions such as what
hours you work. what items
you want to sell. how much
to sell them for and other
things that make the busi-
ness new and exciting. I
can't get into every aspect of
eBay. but the bottom line is
that it is a great resource for
learning.

The process may seem
difficult to grasp. but who
said starting your own busi
ness was easy?

If you really want to
learn how to manage a com»
pany. do the research. take
the risks and be successful.

If you can‘t manage a
business now. get involved
on campus. You will notice
that almost every student on
ganization runs like a busi-
ness.

If that‘s not enough.
eBay University will be con-
ducting a Selling Basics
course in Cincinnati. Ohio.
Oct. 2 at 8 am. For $39. sell~
ing experts will teach you
everything from basic sell-
ing techniques to how to ac-
cept online payments. using
methods like Payl’al.
